Granada - España

Handmade with love and free software, hosted in Neocities

STATEMENT

My projects are created by using intimacy and speculative narrative as pivoting elements. I usually create installations by mixing various artcrafts. I’m interested in performance, as well, specially dancing. I usually make my art so to dialogue with feminisms, sustainability and memory. I want my work to awaken the desire for touch and movement.

I’m interested in physical objects, their weight and the relationship we build around them. Among my interests, I would highlight my desire to explore the relationship we build with technology, focused on speculative narreatives that drives us towards a more sustainable way to perceive it, being concious about materials and resources, avoiding opacity for both physical and code requirements.

PROYECCIONES - exhibition Granada Espacio Lavadero

In this exhibition, I’m exploring how personal experiences are woven across locations, and become visual and emotional memories that cannot be unattached from those spaces.

These experiences are built using cartographies and the act of walk as pivots. As someone who was born in Granada, my personal interest in the history of my city has guided my body through the city streets. I wanted to attend to those -physcal- impulseswhile taking into consideration my own surroundings and the context.

Maps that have represented Granada for centuries are re-imagined in these installations, resulting in a collection of narratives that require active intention from the viewers, inviting them to move around the objects.
